    1. First, prepare the dough. To do this, beat the eggs with sugar. Add a pinch of baking soda and baking powder, along with sour cream. Mix everything thoroughly and gradually add sifted flour and starch. Divide the dough into 3 parts. Add poppy seeds to one part, chopped nuts to the second, and dried fruits to the third. Bake the layers one after another, then let them cool completely. To know how to make the "Gelandewagen" cake, you need to have a template and a photo of the car at hand. Use the completely cooled layers to form the base of the future cake.
